Debate 🇫🇴 Faroe Islands

Faroese MPs reopen the debate over access to medical cannabis

MP Jenis á Rana resubmitted a proposal to let Faroese patients join Denmark’s medical-cannabis trial after parliament rejected it in 2018.[1] Many MPs now supported wider access but argued that the health minister could add products to the medicines list without a new law.[1] Minister Sirið Stenberg offered to discuss that route with the social affairs committee; official medical guidance dates the trial scheme’s start to April 2019.[1][2]
